After pointing to a notable rebound by the markets earlier this morning, stocks futures have recently shown a notable pullback. The futures are currently pointing to a roughly flat open for the markets, with the Dow futures up by just 12 points.
The pullback by the futures came following the release of a report from payroll processor ADP showing much weaker than expected private sector job growth in the month of February.
